Is it possible to have two cell numbers on one phone?

I'd give out my burner number if anyone outside of HR asked for my contact info.

Yes. Most modern phones are dual-sim. New Google Pixels, new iPhones, All Xiaomis afaik.

You can give them phone number A and then completely disable that sim out of work hours.

Edit: also you can have "virtual" phone numbers that you just use inside an app on your phone, but they don't do as much as a normal mobile number so I personally wouldn't take my chances.

Interesting!!

Do you know if it would it be cheaper to have a second SIM card or a virtual phone number?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Depends where you live. MoreMins lets you buy a virtual phone number for about €4/mo if I remember right, which is wayy cheaper than anything physical you can get anything here in Australia.
